Houser is an exceptional writer whose examples and explanations assist each one of us in understanding the complexity of research., The Counseling and Educational Research text is a wonderful way to help familiarize Masters-level counseling students with the research process, and how it can be used to enhance their own understanding of research. It is a practical and easy read...I would recommend it for any Master-level counseling course., Houser describes research methodology and techniques in a way that novice researchers can understand. This book is written in a wonderful transparent style., This text is an effective tool in counseling research education.  It reads easy and is clear in both clarity and flow., Houser is the best text available for a master's level course that examines research from the perspective of counseling practitioners rather than researchers.
